Law and Chaos

I generally like this program. I listen regularly and followed it under its previous title. That said I feel like the explanation of “per se” and “per quod” might deserve a revisit. “Per se” is when a statement is false outright or “on the face of it.” “Per quod” is when the defamation is implied. For “per quod,” some states like Missouri have an “innocent construction” defense, meaning that is the statement is true in its most innocent interpretation, then it is not defamatory.

The hosts do a good job of appraising intelligent listeners about a variety of legal issues confronting the nation.

Liz an Andrew’s way of covering things week to week is great for making sense of the stream of material coming out of the headline mills.

Love the pod. Love Liz and Andrew, and how Liz reigns in Andrew’s geekery and Andrew steadies the rails on Liz’ justifiable rage at the world’s current incompetence - and also will rattle them too when appropriate! Perfect balance of the team - and I have to admit… I gotta hear the Magic the Gathering case. It’s already so nerdy … lean into it! Thanks for a great pod.
